Journal 5

I watch my sister pull out of the driveway and speed off. She still drives too fast. I thought as you age and mature, so does your driving. Maybe it's due to her new Mini and the ridiculously fast speed limits on the Audubon. She says she 'still drives fast, but not as stupid' I think the two are the same. Maybe it is only me that has changed. I sometimes find myself (with my 'baby on board' sticker) going the speed limit on the interstate and thinking, past Felicia would be passing me and shouting obscenities right now.
She stayed for almost three weeks this visit, which is an improvement, but the visits are getting few and far in between. It had been a whole year since I saw her last. Too long. When she lived in the states, I saw her everyday. She was my best friend. It hurts to write the word 'was' and know it is not an error.
